HUBB CoWorking, operating as The Hubb, is a WeWork-managed coworking space located at 100 W Broadway in Long Beach, California, offering flexible workspaces including private offices, dedicated desks, coworking memberships, day passes, and meeting rooms.[1][2] It serves freelancers, startups, remote teams, and growing businesses in the vibrant West End Long Beach neighborhood, solving the need for affordable, amenity-rich shared offices amid rising demand for hybrid work environments post-pandemic, with pricing starting at $350/month for offices and $199/month for memberships.[1][2] The space emphasizes community and convenience in an emerging waterfront city, boasting high walkability (97/100), transit access (75/100), and amenities like high-speed Wi-Fi, outdoor patios, IT support, pet-friendly policies, wellness rooms, and event spaces.[1][2]
The Hubb occupies a building constructed in 1985 and renovated in 2017, transforming three floors into modern creative workspaces under WeWork's management.[2] WeWork, known for revolutionizing flexible office solutions globally, integrated The Hubb into its network to tap into Long Beach's growing appeal as a hub between Los Angeles and San Diego, drawing on the area's six million annual visitors and creative energy.[1] Early traction stems from its central location and features like an outdoor patio and string-art installations, positioning it as a breezy alternative to pricier LA options just 21 miles away.[1]
The Hubb rides the hybrid work trend, fueled by post-2020 shifts where 70%+ of companies adopt flexible models, making coworking essential for tech startups and remote creators avoiding high urban rents.[1][2] Timing aligns with Long Beach's emergence as a cost-effective tech corridor near LA's Silicon Beach, benefiting from market forces like waterfront revitalization and proximity to ports/tech events.[1] It influences the ecosystem by enabling scalable growth for early-stage teams, fostering networking in a creative vibe that mirrors WeWork's global push to democratize premium offices.
The Hubb is poised for steady expansion as hybrid work solidifies, potentially adding more LA-area outposts amid WeWork's recovery and demand for amenity-packed spaces.[1][2] Trends like AI-driven remote tools and urban migration to affordable suburbs will boost occupancy, while integrations with virtual events could enhance its edge. Its influence may grow by nurturing Long Beach's startup scene, evolving from a local gem to a regional anchor for tech nomads—reinforcing why flexible spaces like The Hubb define the new work era.
